A CODE FOR FREEDMEX.
The recent Georgia re-organizing Conven
tion appointed a commission to prepare and
report tq the. General Assembly a svstcm of
laws to meet the legal exigencies. resultant
from, emancipation. This commission con
cluded their labors on the 19th of last month,'
and the report which embodies the conclu
sions arrived at is now in print. As it: is
highly probable the Legislature, at its ap
proaching session, will, with perhaps some
few emendations, adopt this report, a synop
sis thereof willpe essayed. The report, then,
consists of fourteen articles, made up of one
hundred andfifty-fourscctions. Article first
repeals the slave and free negro codes, defines
frctpfrsons of color, and declares "such per
sons shall have the right to acquire, own,
and dispose of property, to enjoy the fruits
of their labor, to make contracts, to sue and'
be sued, to receive and transmit property by '
inheritance" and "to receive protection inlheir
persons and property." There being already
a law as' to -tile testimony of such persons,
the provisions of the report thereon are, as
supererogatory, not given. Article second
provides for the organization, procedure, etc,
of a county court in each county, to hold
daily sessions jurisdiction, $100 , Article
third, fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh regu
late respectively the domestic relations, hus
band and wife, parent and child, guardian
and ward, master and servant, and master
and apprentice. Those now living as man
and wife arc declared to be really such,
choice to be made in case thcro are ' more
than one gitast husband or wife. Parents
are required to support children, legitimate
and bastard alike, and all now born are
legitimated. Relation of guardian and ward
same as among white persons, subject to the
jurisdiction of ordinary. The articles regu
lating the jurisdiction of master and servant,
and master aud apprentice, are quite lengthy,
but in eflect almost exact transcripts of tho
old common law in those regards, mutiUis
mutandis to fit local exigencies. Article
eight extends the law of contracts, as of
force among whites, to the blacks,
illiterate persons being especially, and.
strongly protected. Article ninth extends
the law of wills, administration, distribu
tion of estates and the like to the blacks,
with some amendments to lessen expenso to
them of the usual procedure. Article tenth
punishes certain' crimes larceny, grand and
petit, vagrancy, receiving stolen goods, and
attempts at larceny, burglary, arson, and
robbery by penal labor on public works.
Provides for superintendent of Buch labor,
and gives right to him to farm out convict
labor,takIngbond for humane treatment, tfce.;
recusance of convict to be punishablo by
same chastisement now", by law, permitted in
tho penitentiary in the case of white convicts
recusant. Article eleven sets forth crimes
and their punishment. -Rape, poisoning, ar
son, and attempts thereat, punishable with
from death to lightiaiprisonment. Slakes
it also crime to conjoin c to injure ne
groes in theirpersons or property. Article
twelve further defines crimes. Article thir
teen regulates practice in criminal cases, and
article fourteen regards licenses in business,
requiring them in special cases, irrcspec
Uve of color.
In one word, this proposed code is simply
an extension to the negroes of the old com
mon law as to person and property. Could
these principles, modified to some extent by
the provisions of the chapters de MertinU, to
be found in the civil law, be digested into a
code applicable alike to each of the laW.
slave States, the negro question would iSPei

THE PROPOSITION OF FRANCE TO' THE
AV'ASIIINOTON' CABINET, ; f
DrujTi de Lhcys, tho French Minister of
Foreign Aflairs, on thelOthof October nwda
the following proposition to the Government!
at Washington. They are contained in a;
letter to the Marquis de Monthalon, French"
Ambassador to the United. States:
"I have taken several occasiohs in tiia
past two months to advise you of tlie tlis-l
positions of tha -Imperial Government con4
cerniug tuc duration ui ine ucuupuiiou 01
Mexico by the French troops. I told youi
in my dispatch of August 17th, that wc;
callcu with, our most sincere wishes for the,
day when the last French soldier should;
leave the country, and that the Cabinet of
Washington- could contribute to hasten that
moment. On the 2d of September I re-i
newed to you the assurance of our strong-
desire to withdraw our auxiliary corps so
toon as circumstances should allow it. At,
last, following the same ideas more fully, in.
a private letter ot the lutn 01 tne same;
month. I added that it greatly dctiended.
upon the United States to facilitate the dc-i
parture or our troops, it they wouiu adopt
toward the Mexican Government an amica
ble attitude 'which would aid to the consoli
dation of order,, and in which wc could find
inotives.of security for the interest whiclt
obliged us. to " carry arms beyond the
Atlantic, wc could be ready to adopt with
out delay the bases of an undcrstendinfr on
the- subject with the Cabinet of Washing
ton; and I wish to make fully known to
you now the views of the Government of
his Majesty.
"What we ask of the United States is to bet
assured that their intention is not to impede;
the consolidation of tho new order of things
founded in Mexico; and the best guarantee;
that wc could recede of their intention
would bo the rccegmtion of the Emperor;
Maximilian by the Federal Government.
Mexico, it is. true, is still occupied at this
moment by the French army, and we can
readily-sec tha& ibis objection will arise. 1
But the acknowledgment of the Emperor;
Maximilian, by the United States would, in
oar opinion, havo .sufficient influence upon
the state of the country to. allow im to take in
consideration their susceptibilities on this
subject; and should the Cabinet at Washing
ton decide to open diplomatic relations with
the Court of Mexico, wo would see no diffi
culty in entering into an arrangement for"
the recall of our troops within a reasonable,
period, of which we would, (might) consent
to fix the tenninatkwi."
SECRETARY SEWARD'S REPiY
The effect of the JJtnporor'a saggentiofw,
when they are reduced, to a practical shape.
seems to be this: that France is willing to
retire from Mexico as soon as she Jay, Imt
that it would be inconvenient for her without
first receiving from the United States an as
surance of a friendly or .tolerant disposition
to the Power which has assumed to itself an'
imperial form in the capital city of Mexico.-
The President is gratified with the assu
rance you, have thus given of the Emperor's
good disposition. I regret, howevcrto be
oblige to say that the , condition the Empe
ror suggests is one which seems quite im
practicable. It is true, indeed, that the presence of for-1
cien armies in an adtacent country couhl
fiot under any ciccumstances, but caJtseun-
easinew anu anxiety im 111ejwn.ot.iHis kuv-
emment. it creates lor us expenses, wiiIch
arc inconvenient, not to speak of dangers of
coll&ions. IveverthelesR, I cannot but infer
from 'the tenor of yoweWimttmeation that
thoprincip.il cause' of the discontent tw
vailing in the United States in regard to
Mexico is wot fully apprehemlcd by the
Emperor's government. The chief cause is
not that there is a foreign army Im Mexico ;
much less does that dtseontesvt arise from
the circumstance that that foreign army is a
French one: We recogni2e the right of
